Press u to activate air recirculation
mode. The LED in the button
illuminates to indicate activation.
Press u again to deactivate air
recirculation mode.
9 Warning
The exchange of fresh air is
reduced in air recirculation mode.
In operation without cooling the air humidity increases, so the
windows may mist up from inside.
The quality of the passenger
compartment air deteriorates,
which may cause the vehicle
occupants to feel drowsy.
In warm and very humid ambient air conditions, the windscreen may mist
up from outside when cold air is
directed towards it. If windscreen
mists up from outside, activate
windscreen wiper and deactivate l.
Demisting and defrosting
● Press l: the air distribution is
directed towards the windscreen.
● Set temperature controller n to
